Ideas Needed

[Gdhilton]

Hey, I'm new tot he site just after some ideas.

Im 24 and I'm looking for a cheap but fun run around for my trip to and from work. Just A/B roads but I want something a bit left field and a bit quick, but mainly fun. I want to spend about £1000.

What do ya think?

Mk1 MR2 if you can find one. Or a Puma 1.7i.

Exactly the car i was going to suggest.

Manual, Boot not major issue, insurance not a problem as long as its not sky high, fuel economy average is ok.

Look at some Pumas, I had one when I was younger - loved it. After owning some more cars I got my girlfriend one - still love it. They have a nice revvy little engine and they are great fun to drive, brilliant chassis. Cheap to run too.

There is loads out there though, so you can be picky.

Might find a MK4 Prelude 2.2 in budget?

Another good one too. I had one and loved it - Best dash of any car I have owned, great seats, great engine.

E30 / 36 3 series would be a 2 litre tho not very quick but Rwd and funish.

I'm afraid to say maybe an mx-5

No there is a good idea - cracking 190 bhp vtec engine. 4 wheel steer and I know a Honda tech round the corner who loves these...

Also - they're silly cheap for what they are.
